Tile stands from Ephraim Studios are a great solution for those who wish to display our tiles on a tabletop. Our stands are made by hand using a process similar to that of our frames. White oak is cut, planed, and sanded to perfection, then fumed and stained to darken the wood to a classic Arts-and-Crafts hue. Polyurethane is applied to seal and protect the wood.
